Gpm

I sent an email to GPM, simply asking
"When will you begin shipping to the United States again?"

This is the response. Not even customer friendly.

"NO, it is paused"

Notice the all caps NO. I guess we are out of luck
if we want anything from them.

Yep, I found this out a few days ago via reply to a similar request. Kartonmodelleshop responded similarly. There are a few sellers on eBay who are still shipping (Debica, for one. Purchased a Angraf B-57G off of him), but otherwise I've put some feelers out on the forum trying to source additional models.

Now THAT'S a tempting proposition Dave!

Unfortunately, I don't have a printer here at home, and realistically I'd want to also get the Fly C-130 model to base the interior and framing off of. Let me look into what that'd take, that's certainly a project I'd like to take on!

Machine translation of GPM's delivery announcement:



English​▼
News
SERVICE IN POST is active, you are welcome to use Inpostu. In the current situation, it is faster than the post office. Prezsylki (?Presentations?)via email we will pursue every 2-3 days because there are big problems with granting .Wysyłki pobraniowa (?Cash on delivery?) are suspended until normalize the situation. In connection with the suspension by the Polish Post shipping overseas for a period of two weeks, foreign orders outside europe they will not be realized. Shipments to European countries is delivered through a courier service GLS and the event will be held on August normally.


BTW, Vector has just released a paper model corona virus for 12 PLN, available through GPM !!!!

I don't think its possible.
Nobi's original design never had interior in mind.
And the modifications I have made to that design, make it even less likely to receive an interior.
The internal formers and fuselage assembly are not configured for that kind of modding.
You could probably introduce a cockpit interior, but thats all (in my opinion).
